Roll your eyes if you must,but I picked Kevin Clash. He absolutely is the most versatile of the options in the poll. From Craniac to Clifford to Polly Lobster to Hoots the Owl, he's much more than a furry red monster.

I chose Kevin... after seeing the film 'Being Elmo', I just feel he is an awesome guy and I really admire him for having a dream as a little boy and pursuing it to it's completion. Also, the way he helps others to achieve their dreams. He's a real quality guy!

I did finally get to see the Being Elmo documentary. (Thanks Netflix...and Tough Pigs for mentioning that it was on Netflix, lol).

Now I am a critic of Elmo's World and I still stand by that. But I did greatly enjoy this documentary. Kevin's story is truly an inspiration for any kid with a dream and any young adult dealing with the highs and lows of the business. It goes to show you can't let the occasional set back get you down.

And I will say, I loved it when Elmo was narrating the home movie for Kevin's baby, that was adorable.

And of course I'm very happy Richard Hunt got so much attention. To be honest I'm always afraid some less than savvy interviewer will make some snide comment about Richard giving the future star Elmo away, but thankfully Richard is treated with a lot of respect here.
